Live blog: Avila's bomb gives Tigers commanding lead

Top 6th: Tigers 6, Indians 0

Well, goes to show what this blogger knows. After telling my followers with full confidence that Trevor Bauer would exit tonight's game after getting out of a rocky fifth inning at 105 pitches, low and behold, the Indians brought Bauer back out for the sixth.

Turns out, Terry Francona should have followed basic baseball wisdom after Tyler Collins singled and Alex Avila crushed a 2-run home run to left field to give the Tigers a commanding 6-0 lead.

Bauer is now officially out of the game having thrown 111 pitches.
